We are indebted to Hon. F. G.
Adams for the fifth biennial report of
the Kansas State Historical Society,
which shows the work of the society
for the two years ending January 10,
1887. The society was then eleven
years old. The primary object OF the
society is that of collecting, arranging
and cataloguing library of the ma
terials of Kansas history, including
books. pamphlets, newspapers, maps,
pictures, and in short everything which
contains information concerning and
going to illustrate the history of Kan
sas. Incidentally. so interviewer has
been the history of Kansas with that
of the whole country, and 50 much has
it enlisted general interest,
its library has come to be the
recipient, largely by gift, of not
only the materials of the history, but OF
everything Of literary and scientific
character relating to all parts of the
country. There have been added tC
the society's library during the two
years covered by this report: OF bound
volumes, 1880; unbound volumes
and pamphlets, 1O,OOe; volumes OF
newspapers and periodicals, 2,25l;
manuscripts, 1872; and numerous
pictures and miscellaneous contribu.
tions.
The total of the library in January
last was, Of bound volumes, 1852; un.
bound volumes, 21,103; bound news
paper files and volumes of periodicals
$3.50; making the total of the library
S5,44l. Its yearly accession Of the files
of local newspapers is no doubt greater
than that of any other library in the
country. The regular issues of all the
local newspapers, daily and weekly
published in every county in Kansas
are freely given the society by the pub
fishers, and are bound, and placed OF
the shelves Of the library. Thus ii

materials Of the history of every town

Forged y Check.

Sunday morning Mr.. Northcup,
who has been working for John
Henning for the past seven
months, failed to make his ap-
pearance at the regular time. Later
in the day the officers of the First Ma
tional bank sent Mr.. Henning a check,
stating that it had been presented for
payment and refused because they were
certain it was not his signature. An
examination showed this to be a fact
and Mr.. Henning recognized the sigma
ture as that of Mr.. Northcup's. The
check called for $40, which he secured
of W. A. Sturgeon and he in turn pre-
scented it to the bank with the result
as given above.
The facts were reported to the police
and county attorney and efforts are be-
ing made to find the forger. He is from
Illinois and is of a good family, his
father being minister. Mr.. Henning
has noticed nothing crooked in his
manner or actions since he first hired
him and Northcup was on duty up to
10 O'Clock Saturday evening.
